한국인 성인에서 두정골의 부위별 두께에 대한 연구

Abstract

To clarify the clinical utility of the calvarial bone graft in the maxillofacial reconstruction, we performed on anatomical study by measuring the regional thickness of the parietal bone on 17 Korean adult dry skulls. Before the sectioning the calvarium, the anatomical landmarks were marked on each specimens. And then we measured the total thickness of the parietal bone, the thickness of the outer and inner cortical plates on various points in each sections of parietal bones using a digital caliper under the stereomicroscope. The total thickness of the parietal bone was ranged from 5.17mm to 7.50mm, and there were no statistical difference in the total thickness of the parietal bone on the same points bilaterally. But there was a tendency that the thickness of the parietal bone was thicker toward to the lambda point than the coronal suture area. At the other hand, the thickness of the outer and inner plate of the parietal bone was the thickest at the first point of the right aspect on the line 1, the first point of the left aspect on the line 5, respectively. In conclusion, this study showed that the donor site of the parietal bone for the maxillofacial reconstruction should be located at more posterior and medial area of the parietal bone than the prevalent known donor site.
